I'd really like to know whether coasting in neutral with engine on in a CVT is safe too, especially in a OBD-I era car, and whether it should only be utilised when you know you have to come to a stop such that the car can put back into 'drive' when stationary.

I plan to create a thread solely for my 1996 K11 Micra 1.3l CVT and the issues I've had getting within even 25% of the claimed figures but the biggest problem seems to be that my car has almost zero coasting ability; it feels like it drops a figurative anchor whenever I let off the gas...
